I have a funny feel Heroku is in maintenance mode. It seems to be getting pushed aside at Salesforce.

- jmuguy 4y agoI'm definitely getting worried about that. Our CTO has always said we'd move off Heroku when we got big enough, which makes sense, but now I'm afraid we're going to be doing it in a hurry when Heroku stops caring about some aspect of their service we depend on. We're already sort of seeing that in a niche case - it used to be that credentials to access Heroku's PG databases were created with readonly permissions by default. That has been broken for some time, forcing you to connect to the PG instance and run the necessary SQL commands to provide access. Not a big deal but just another indication to me that the lights are on but no one is home.
- brianwawok 4y agoHow much Heroku specific stuff are you using? Wouldn't be a bad idea to maybe spend one cycle every few projects to remove a piece of that and switch to "standard" stuff. The actual dev-ops stuff isn't hard, k8s does it out of the box and has multiple providers. Should save you 75% of your hosting bill, which may or may not matter dependign on your scale.
